well 12hrs later I just got it home. The slip yoke eliminator didnt get done but my drive line angles are pretty good an itll be fine for a couple weeks till I get a chance. My steering stabilizer isnt on and my transfer case skid. Other than that its done. Needs an alignment REALLY BAD. Didnt take a single pic im sorry but this was the day from hell an my truck fought the whole way. The kit went on pretty smooth I cant complain about it to much. I definitely dont think its the highest quality crap but it could be alot worse. Ill get some pics in the next couple days but for now im going to bed. this was the day from hell!!!!!!!!

yea alot of my bolt holes didnt line up great and the directions lacked alot and had alot of stupid unnecessary information in its place. The control arms didnt go together or adjust worth a crap. steering stabilizer was utter crap, didnt come with the right stuff. Drill bits were impossible to find an EXPENSIVE. actually looks pretty good still sitting on the 235/75s lol.

Well round 2 at the alignment shop this morning. He got everything looking good an the steering wheel centered again. I go to leave an can't make a right turn. Basically the wheel was atleast a full rotation off. So its back up there an they are gonna tear everything off an start from scratch. Good news is they aren't charging me any extra an I got a satisfaction guarantee so I hope its ready before I have to go to work tonight

alright well the jeep finally got out of the shop at 6 tonight. Took all day for them to get it right and tracking. Some how when we put the pit man arm on last night it got put on way wrong. I figured thats what it was when it would only turn a 1/4 turn to the right. anyways heres a teaser pic ill get plenty more tomorrow. front looks really high in this pic but i think it was the parking spot. The back is actually alil higher than the front sitting on level ground

there was a 2" BB on it before. I actually opted for those shackles over the RC shackles. They were alot beefier!!! anyways heres the pics. They are with my phone cuz i cant find the camera. Still working on getting the steering stabilizer on. Go figure thats the part that wants to fight to go on. SYE is going on in a week or so. You can see though the drive lines arent that bad considering. here we go:

So still need to put the transfercase skid on but gonna wait till the slip yoke is done. I also got the sway bar links hooked up but the disconnects arent on. You have to remove the stock bolt on the axle mount to put the new disconnect pin in. Only problem is its welded. anybody got anythoughts other than cutting it and drilling it out?

Yea I could've tried to beat it out the other night but that's only like a 1/4" bracket coming off the axle. It's gonna bend the hell out of it an that's if it doesn't break
